It actually says a lot about the Republican strategy of demonizing Obama and Hillary Clinton. Those Trump supporters actually believe all of the total BS Republicans have been throwing against the wall for decades to see if something will stick.

It's backfired now: There are a lot of actual thoughtful, reasonable Republicans who know Trump is 100 times worse than Hillary. But their useful idiots want Trump, so they have little choice. If they want to maintain the illusion that they are leading, they have to get out in front of the riot.

I just thought I would throw this into the mix in case its been missed. Trump isn't paying the hired help! https://www.yahoo.com/news/one-secret-trumps-low-cost-campaign-free-labor-111732110.html?ref=gs

He also had a big deal, in Everett, WA recently and, apparently, left that city with something like a 8,000.00 bill.

Seems the secret of his success is simply not paying the bills!

Not paying the bills locally, outsourcing manufacturing jobs, and hiring immigrant labor at starvation wages in his various enterprises.

And all the while claiming he will improve local economies, bring manufacturing jobs back, and get rid of immigrants.

His record would have destroyed any other candidate.

Absolutely! Republicans have been known for their double-speak (saying one thing - meaning another). Trump is a master at performing double-speak, saying one thing but doing the complete opposite.

Article on Trump's history as a 'manager'
Quote
In a book that O'Donnell wrote about his experience as a Trump casino executive, he painted a picture of a boss who was not interested in cultivating high rollers by socializing with them and unaware of the need for the repeat business of everyday gamblers from New York City and Philadelphia. What Trump was interested in was the way his executives looked and dressed. O'Donnell wrote of how Trump warned his top men about the dangers of losing their hair, and recalled that he once told all the managers at the casinos that they should wear suits because "there are no sport coats in the Trump Organization."

ergo the reason I refused to work in a corporate environment ... just could not bring myself to wear a 3-piece and wingtips regardless of remuneration .... some principles are intractable

I wore shorts and sandals all summer to my last programming job. But the boss would keep his soccer uniform on after his lunch-time game!
